SO I got some thoughts and ideas swirling around in my head thinking of a cyberpunk universe that is coexisting with the races and magic you'd find in a high fantasy setting, sort of like Phantasy Star but original, yah know? Then to add on to that, put in some existential themes and mythos involving gods from ancient times who told of an event happening in a time of metal and innovation (technology), something long forgotten but is now showing up! Then I was thinking to add to that we could have a nation-like group that could be resistant to the coming horrors and choose to look over the possible threat only to have their very foundation crumble!

True to the cyberpunk setting, some high-fantasy staples would need translated... so Kingdoms become Corporations, traditional races would get new spins... Imagine Elves desperately trying to cling to nature when the world is turning to one giant computer, or dwarves having laid down their pickaxes and tore down their forges and erect massive industrial empires of heavy machinery, even orcs may have a strange place here depending on what we can collectively come up with. Swordplay can still be common, but now we have the advent of guns, but also more than likely bullet resistant armor, shield that need to be destroyed (similar to a Borderlands fashion I'm guessing), and magic takes a whole new spin now that it can be applied to something as ridiculous as technology... imagine necromancy.... it has become....

Well I suppose normal necromancy is still a thing but you get the idea xD

There's all these cool avenues we could explore... I'm looking for a few Intermediate, Adept, and above minds to come and help out with this idea. Now we can't have it be too generic so I will be here as a "let's tone it down" sort of conscientiousness but I'd love to widen this as far as possible. I'm more than certain if this gets enough interest I'll look for a co-gm.

I'm fine with both, as it can depend on the character and game. I do think I've got a bad habit developed st some point where I tend to avoid the spotlight when I should step into it, but I'm working on it. And when I decide there's been enough talk and it's time for action, I'll go out and do something.

Favorite Genres:

Scifi, anime, mecha, magical girl, modern, superhero, cyberpunk

Genre You DON'T Like:

Not too keen on traditional (Tolkein-style) fantasy, modern fantasy, or supernatural romance

I also see some Shadowrun similarity. But hey, cyberpunky settings, or settings like Phantasy Star that just blatantly combine fantasy and scifi without regard for it being possibly silly interest me. So, I'll at least express some interest. I'm pretty damn terrible at making plotlines and things, though. Well, unless maybe it's magical girls or similar things. I can at least dump a ton of questions.

Are we aiming for a sort of "fantasy setting that's been modernized" feel, or more a modern setting that's gotten a fantasy overlay (which is what Shadowrun does)?
Full gritty cyberpunk dystopia, or more hopeful?
What sort of focus on professions do you want? Mercenary adventurers or criminals, or something else?

And, uh, I'm sure there's plenty more simple questions to start with to really get the idea going.

Are we aiming for a sort of "fantasy setting that's been modernized" feel, or more a modern setting that's gotten a fantasy overlay (which is what Shadowrun does)?More of a post-modernized fantasy setting, basic fantasy races are present but have received a technological spin on them, magic has evolved to incorporate technology and vice versa.

Full gritty cyberpunk dystopia, or more hopeful?We're going to say much more of a sort of Game of Thrones meets Cyberpunk sort of things, there'll be one overarching country split three ways by the leading triumvirates who constantly have small squabbles politically, economically, and militaristic-ly. Depending under which section you live (and work) under, you'll have a slightly different view of the world. It'll be harsh and containing much of the corrupt corporation thing you normally find in cyberpunk but corporations are now technically a stand in for kingdoms. So if you haven't guessed, each triumvirate is a different company with its own levels of corruption and hope.

What sort of focus on professions do you want? Mercenary adventurers or criminals, or something else?I'll leave a rather large pool of ideas people can take with their characters primary professions, even if they don't necessarily have one. I'll aim for an even mix of many things, some people may even choose to make a character that is originally a cubicle dwelling peon turned rebel.
